Pet Boarding in Trooper

About: I have cared for my own pets (two cats and a dog) for over 8 years and have hands-on experience working in animal shelters. I understand how to build trust and friendships with animals, ensuring they feel safe, happy, and well cared for. I work from home on Mondays and Fridays, and from Tuesday to Thursday I’m available after 5:00 PM to take care of your fur babies. I’m also available on weekends upon request. :) For client homes, I follow the owner’s instructions closely to keep pets in their familiar routine—whether that’s feeding, walking, play, or medication. I focus on making sure each pet feels loved, safe, and well looked after.

“Melissa & Eric are truly nice folks...relaxed, friendly, and professional w/out being stand-offish at all. They're very quick to respond to Rover.com requests & messages, & have a natural affinity for and understanding of dogs. Their black lab mix, Violet, is gorgeous, petite, & well behaved. On our meet 'n greet, I could see Violet would be fine with my two dogs. Melissa & Eric sent cute pics of Shiloh & Moochie on both days they were boarding my dogs. My pups looked relaxed & worry-free. Thank you both for being such patient, careful & thoughtful caretakers of my two lilttle pals!!”

“Sruthi and Abha were so wonderful to our little Meatball! While we were on vacation, it was clear that Meatball was too! They sent updates with photos multiple times a day. It was so sweet and my kids, in particular, loved hearing what adventure their dog was having each day! We look forward to booking when we go away again! Thanks!!!”

“Sofie had another wonderful stay with them! I got a lot of updates and pictures which I really appreciate. It’s so great to have such wonderful and reliable sitters for our dog.”

“We are so grateful to have found Ulku and Andrew! They were so kind and wonderful to work with and our dog seemed to have had the best time! Their backyard was a real treat for our dog and the picture and video updates were awesome. We really hope to be able to work with them again in the future!”

“Ariel is awesome, and our dog is so happy staying with her! We have a Boston Terrier who needs to be around people, he does not do well in a kennel for overnights. Ariel’s home is safe and comfortable for him. He had the best time playing with her dogs and her kids. It’s clear he is very loved and in her care.”

“Lisa was a wonderful host to our 1 year old puppy. I loved the frequent, daily updates and pictures. It was clear our puppy had an amazing time and was worn out (in a great way) when we got her back. She provided lots of socializing opportunities and belly rubs and it is clear she loves what she does!”

Pam M.

“Brandi was absolutely amazing! From start to finish, she made us feel completely comfortable leaving Kuma in her care. We loved all the pictures and detailed updates she sent — it meant so much to see how happy and well cared for our pup was while we were away. It was clear she truly cares and goes above and beyond. We will definitely be using her again in the future and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, thoughtful, and attentive dog sitter!”

“Fiona understands GSD's very well. She cares for them over well. Shona will not do anything that is not stated. She works with you if a problem arises. I would use her again.”

“Having Yuiko keep my furbaby was such a pleasure. She was extremely pleasant and made sure to keep me updated the entire time. Great yard where my dog was allowed to run around and play with her children. It was such a pleasure and I will use her again if I'm ever in need!”

Lisa M.

“Ben has been a fantastic overnight sitter for my golden retriever. My dog stays at his house, where he also has two friendly dogs that get along great with mine. Ben sends regular updates and photos—usually of the dogs out on walks or my dog happily getting belly rubs—which I really appreciate. He also has a great fenced-in backyard where the dogs can safely play. The best sign of all was that my dog was genuinely excited to see Ben again on a repeat visit. I’ll definitely continue using Ben in the future and highly recommend him. 🐾”

“Allison and the girls took such great care of Cookie! As first time Rover users, Allison was patient with my husband and provided regular check-ins, updates and pictures! It was clear Cookie had a nice time and was much less stressed than when we typically board her. We look forward to booking again with Allison and Kevin in the future!”

“From what I understand Missy adjusted well to the environment and seemed comfortable with the family. Thanks Ryan for taking great care of Missy!”

About: I’ve raised two puppies of my own, giving them a strong foundation with patience, consistency, and a lot of love. That experience taught me how to understand a dog’s needs, energy, and personality at every stage. My love for our four-legged companions never fades, and dog sitting is a way for me to continue spending time with them and giving them the same care and attention I gave my own. I treat every dog like family making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I genuinely enjoy being around animals. I prioritize time each day for walks, playtime, feeding, and check-ins to make sure pets are happy and comfortable. My schedule is flexible, which allows me to spend more time with the best people in the world! Whether it’s early morning walks, midday visits, or evening care, I’m intentional about giving each pet consistent attention and care throughout the week. I create a safe, calm, and loving environment whether I’m in my home or a client’s. I carefully follow all instructions, including feeding schedules, routines, and any specific needs. I’m attentive to a dog’s behavior and surroundings to prevent any unsafe situations. Building trust is important to me, not just with pets, but with owners too, so I provide updates, stay reliable, and treat every home and pet with respect and care.

“Very friendly and accommodating for a last minute booking. Comforting to know our dog was treated like part of the family while we were away.”

About: I’ve taken care of a friend’s puppy for several months, house & dog sat for weeks at a time, and have walked dogs of all sizes. I am very good with following specific instructions you may have. My work involves meeting with clients and I am able to walk or play between my appointments. I usually will have a time gap between appointments so your pet will definitely not be lonely! I live close to a park and have access to a dog park if your puppy likes to run around. I also can easily keep a crate if needed/preferred. If you have any toys your pet loves, please feel free to bring it.

“Maranda and her family were amazing. I felt comfortable leaving my girls with her. I rec'd tons of pics, and felt in touch at all times. Highly recommend!”

“Wendy was great with Maverick, she opened her whole house to him. She has a fenced in yard, which is great for an explorer like Maverick. He was immediately comfortable and I know he was in good hands. He chewed some of her personal items and she wasn’t bothered by it. Wendy and her husband clearly care about the dogs they care for. Wendy also sent pictures every day. Maverick didn’t want to leave.”
